Join Leslie Cagan, Barbara Smith, Esther Kaplan, Aurora Levins Morales, Jenny Romaine, Kathy Engel, Roni Natov, Alisa Solomon, Chandra Talpade Mohanty, Helena Lipstadt and Megan Madison as they read from the work of Melanie Kaye/Kantrowitz.
A prolific writer, over the course of a lifetime of activism, artistic work and teaching Melanie wrote poetry, fiction and analytical material. Her fervent, lifelong anti-racist activism grounded all of her work, and her articulation of Diasporism as a conscious alternative to Zionism has had a deep impact in the Jewish left. Melanie's work on gender and sexuality has touched the lives of women since the early 1970s.
